[vtkusers] Bizarre Python Errors

[Mike Robertson]

One quick question, then:
[localhost:vtk/VTK/Hybrid] root# c++ -bundle -flat_namespace -undefined
suppress -g -O2 -fno-coalesce-templates -fno-coalesce-static-vtables -o
/usr/local/vtk/VTK/bin/libvtkHybridPython.so vtkHybridPythonInit.o
vtk3DSImporterPython.o vtkArcPlotterPython.o vtkCaptionActor2DPython.o
vtkCubeAxesActor2DPython.o vtkDepthSortPolyDataPython.o
vtkEarthSourcePython.o vtkGridTransformPython.o vtkImplicitModellerPython.o
vtkImageToPolyDataFilterPython.o vtkIterativeClosestPointTransformPython.o
vtkLandmarkTransformPython.o vtkLegendBoxActorPython.o
vtkPolyDataToImageStencilPython.o vtkRenderLargeImagePython.o
vtkRIBExporterPython.o vtkRIBLightPython.o vtkRIBPropertyPython.o
vtkThinPlateSplineTransformPython.o vtkTransformToGridPython.o
vtkVectorTextPython.o vtkVideoSourcePython.o vtkVRMLImporterPython.o
vtkXYPlotActorPython.o vtkWeightedTransformFilterPython.o

/usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -lvtkRenderingPython
[localhost:vtk/VTK/Hybrid] root#

Locate vtkRenderingPython gives /usr/local/lib/vtk/vtkRenderingPython.so

Do I need to set an env?
